Abstract
By deploying dense subalgebras of we generalize the Bass conjecture in terms of Connes’ cyclic homology theory. In particular, we propose a stronger version of the -Bass Conjecture. We prove that hyperbolic groups relative to finitely many subgroups, each of which posses the polynomial conjugacy bound property and nilpotent periodicity property, satisfy the -Stronger–Bass Conjecture. Moreover, we determine the conjugacy bound for relatively hyperbolic groups and compute the cyclic cohomology of the -algebra of any discrete group.
